Building a geodatabase

Getting started with building a geodatabase An overview of building geodatabases Designing a geodatabase Copying the schema of a geodatabase Ways to create a geodatabase Creating a geodatabase Accessing an ArcSDE geodatabase Upgrading a geodatabase Creating new items in geodatabases Importing data Topology Subtypes and attribute domains Defining a relationship class Geometric networks Managing annotation Annotation in the geodatabase Overview of creating annotation Exploring annotation feature classes in ArcCatalog Managing annotation feature classes Creating annotation feature classes Preparing labels for conversion to annotation Converting labels to annotation features Placing unplaced annotation features Converting labels to map document annotation Importing coverage or CAD annotation into geodatabase annotation Importing SDE 3, VPF, or PC ARC/INFO coverage annotation Converting coverage or SDE 3 annotation to map document annotation Combining annotation feature classes Converting geodatabase annotation to coverage annotation Dimensioning Working with a versioned geodatabase Disconnected editing An overview of disconnected editing How disconnected editing works The master geodatabase The check-out geodatabase Preparing a check-out Checking out geometric networks Checking out topologies Checking out related data The check-out process About checking in data to a master geodatabase Delta databases and XML files Checking in geometric networks Checking in topologies Checking in related data The check-in process Working with version 8.3 and 9 geodatabases Checking out data from a geodatabase Checking in data to a geodatabase Managing check-outs Building geodatabases with CASE tools Building a raster geodatabase Rasters and the geodatabase Performance tuning Creating raster datasets in a geodatabase Creating raster catalogs in a geodatabase Loading and importing rasters Exporting raster formats Mosaicking raster datasets Attributes of type raster Raster data and disconnected editing More details about rasters in ArcGIS Upgrading your 8.x raster catalog Updating your geodatabase raster catalog footprints
